Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[JT3]

Basilio just said PF demanded that every week when Pruitts staff made the gameplan books one was made for him.

Damn. Phil still had the coaching bug. Couldn't get it out of his system.

 

[BearCat204]

Tennessee Stud and company appear to be MIA.

There was another who wouldn’t stop running his suck anytime someone mentioned Pruitt being canned......babbling something about 90%

I understand that the Interim 20201 Steele hire is probably going to be attractive to the administration, but I hope this isn't the case. The in-state class of 2022 & 2023 will be huge and we need to start building relationships now. Hopefully, this is a swift and successful search over the next 2-4 weeks, but I have a feeling knowing how Tennessee does things it won't be.

 

[4chrissy]

Gonna be real annoying if UGA doesn't get popped for something in all of this.

Mims family probably reported to Kirby and he called it in.

Unpopular prediction:

UT will take 10-14 days to hire new AD. Mark Ingram or Jon Gilbert
Steele will coach 2021 Season as IHC.
AD announces new HC November 2021

O'Brien would be a nice nutkick to Bama too since they've all but locked him up as their OC.

But we probably would have to pay a buy out to Bama

 

[VolGee4]

If all this was done without a plan then the entire leadership needs to git.

If there is a plan, it better be a good one. The final nail is about to be driven into this coffin.

I don’t think Plowman is going anywhere. She’s new, and people seem to like her. We can’t keep a revolving door of chancellors either. Need stability up top.

 

[UTProf]

We’re not hearing names from actual credible sources. I’ll wait before igniting.

I’m not igniting yet but I’m preparing for it. I was on the fire Pruitt train before most but this doesn’t feel like a football move at all. He isn’t even being fired for football reasons (that was outright stated early on) so if the boosters weren’t moving because he was a horrible HC who proved to be too far out of his element to succeed and went 3-8 in year 3, including getting wrecked at home by UK in record setting ways, it’s hard to believe that football success is suddenly on their agenda. I hope like hell they prove me wrong.

 

[Dudleys87]

That’s what he was brought on for imo. He won’t be the HC but he’s the package deal for the eventual choice. Stabilizing recruiting presence.

Yep, just hoping the pieces fall in the right places this time

 

[Orange Studs]

Of course I am you jack ass.

You must be responding to someone I have on ignore. lol

 

[wrangler]

Queen's gambit is a pawn sacrifice not a queen sacrifice lol

I thought "sacrifice" applied to pieces, not pawns.

Hubbs said they’re going to move fast on AD hire.

Tell us how you really feel Brad

Again no need to go there Bradley. I like the guy, he's def a family guy. Just happens to be an amalgam of choicest body parts, stitched together from around the (singular) family tree branch (1) in State of Alabama.

 

[volinbama256]

We are still falling, haven't yet found rock bottom after all these years. These multiple violations might finally hit that rock. We might have just killed ourselves. Death penalty.

take a deep breath... I don't think ATL Vol would be talking about F U money and the other if he knew we were screwed. I personally think we get a Herman and have to pay maybe a little more than we want so that he can wade through this ...

 

[Volsfaninva917]

No one is appreciating my word play.

To be honest, I didn't read it that well lol my apologies

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Tell us how you really feel Brad

Wonder what the story is here?

 

[Tri-CitiesVol]

The investigation started because Pruitt let his circus get out of hand. They had no choice but to investigate once they heard what was happening. He brought it on himself.

Of course they had a choice. Cheating happens every where. There’s no way ADs, Chancellors, presidents don’t have an idea of the lengths programs will go to get the edge.

That actually wouldnt shock me.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

It’s Herman.... unless it’s not. But it is Herman!

I would be so excited about Herman. Tell me how you know this again?

 

[MoCo_Vol]

They'd kill for him, that's for certain.

I mean, most employees like bosses that pay them well...

 

[Kingzport]

Hubbs said they’re going to move fast on AD hire.

Already in place? Just waiting announcement? I think so...

 

[jp1]

He’d use both hands.

 

[RikidyBones]

I would be so excited about Herman. Tell me how you know this again?

[BigOrangeGoose]

Hubbs said they’re going to move fast on AD hire.

Well, I will say 10-14 days would be fast for us...

Remember this is UT we’re talking about lol

I hope it’s done quickly for everyone’s sake

 

[Dudleys87]

O'Brien would be a nice nutkick to Bama too since they've all but locked him up as their OC.

Go to Bama with no stress and excessive amounts of talent or stress out at Tennessee?

If they want him bad enough they’ll pay

maybe I just don’t want O’Brien
